OTRC: Dr. Dre settles lawsuit over 'The Chronic' album sales

Dr. Dre recently settled a lawsuit over damages from unauthorized online sales of his 1992 album "The Chronic."

The rapper and producer was set to testify at trial regarding the matter this week. His attorneys filed a notice of settlement in a Los Angeles federal court on Monday, June 6, the Associated Press said.

Dr. Dre said this violated an agreement he had signed with the label, which he claimed had been selling digital versions of "The Chronic" without permission. The trial would have decided whether he was entitled to 100 percent of the profits. Lawyers for both sides have not commented on the settlement.

"The Chronic" contains hit tracks such as "Nuthin' but a 'G"'Thang" and "Let Me Ride," both of which featured rapper Snoop Dogg. Check out a track listing here. (Warning: Record contains explicit lyrics)
